rations are formed opposite the perforations d, said ,A registered erforations receiving pon the opposite lug c* two spaced-depending ears are formed that are oppdsite'ly perforated, these perfor-ations being threaded for rece tion of set-screws d. A depending abutmentllug d, shown by dotted lines in Fig. 4, is positioned between the inner ends ofthe set-screws d2. In the lug vc', behind the set-screws d2, laterally elongated and spaced perforations are formed, that register with perforations in the end portion of the'cross bar 10d, these opposed perforations in the cross bar ceiving two securing bolts e2. It will be seen` t at the special construction of the crorifbar 10, and details connected therewith which have been described, adapt the cross bar to receive a limited lateral adjustment toward or from the boss 12b, the ad vantage of which will be hereinafter explained.

In the hollow body 11 of the machine frame, a shaft A is centrally positioned and adapted for rotation, by means which will now be described. Centrally in the cross bar 10d, an opening is formed as shown at g in Fig. 4, and through the diaphragm wall 111 and said perforation in the cross bai-,the shaft A is loosely passed. Upon the lower side of the cross bar 10.d a depending hub h isformed, having an axial threaded perforation, wherein is screwed a step block h that receives the lower end of the shaft A and su ports the same.

n the lower side of the box formation 11c is a vertical perforation, that is at the axial center of the column 111-," and in said perforation a bearing block b is secured which is vertically bored, and receives theupper journal end of the shaft A. Upon the upper portion of the shaft A, below and near the journal end thereol", a bevel pinion A is secured. j

In the horizontal bore if a short driving shaft-B is loosely bevel gear B secured on one projected end thereof, said gear wheel having meshed engagement with the bevel pinion A. 0n the opposite projected end of the shaft B, a crank handle B2 is mounted and secured, which affords means vior the manual rotation of the driving shaft B and upright shaft A through the medium of the gears A', B. Upon the upright shaft A, bet-Ween the diaphragm wall 11b, and the cross bar 10, a worm gear wheel C of considerable diameter is mounted. and secured. A spiral toothed pinion or small worm gear C is formed or vsecured on a short spindle C2 which meshes with the worm. gear wheel (I, said spindle at its ends respectively having running engage- ,ment with the bearing box I2 and "step block 12"'. Itvwill be seen that the lateral and lug c reis mounted inserted, having a spur en the column into adapted for operating a hand cream separator.

I The provision of a hinged base portionfor the machine frame is of great advantage, as all drippings of grease from the working mechanism in the base 10, and may beremoved at any time by simply rocking the column 11 on the base 10 so as to fully expose the open top of thelatter and thus a`ord free access tov the inside of the base for cleansing the same. Coacting with the machine frame elements that have been described, is an important adjunct comprising an adjustable racket having novel form, this being clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 5. The bracket consists of an meshed engagement'of the worm gears C and,

permits wear of y'said parts to be may have any desiredled by any 1preferred in the hollow frame are caught arm 14 having a circular ring clamp at one end thereof, which is formed with a detachable section'14L hooked at'i upon one end of a semicircular integral lsection 14 of the ring clamp, the opposite end of the detachable section terminatin in a flat flange lc, that is adjustably secure upon the arm 14 by a screw bolt 'i' Vas is clearly shown in. Fig. 5. At the op osite extremity of the arm 14, an integral c ampingrin two radial limbs 15i ormed thereon, and' to give resilience to the body of the ring 15, one imb 15 is longitudinally slotted as shown at m in Fig.' 5, forming two lportions that may be clamped toward each other by the screw m. The )ortion of the bracket comprising the ring c amp having the sections 14, 14

upon the column 1-1, above a circumferential bead n, formed on said column 15-is formed, having los and seats thereon, as shown in Fig. 1, said members 14a, 14b beingfhooked together at l t, and secured the bolt fl.

In the lower edge of the 14b an incline 0, is formed ment with a pin o', which column. It will be be moved the arm 14, may be swung around any desired position, its vcontact with the pin that raises the lower edge of the clamping ring 14, 14h, by its sliding engagement with the incline o, reducing friction, so that the arm may be moved with but slight manual force. The arm 14 is held in any desired position, by a clamp ing adjustment of the screw i. The other clamping ring is designed for holding in position a milk holding vessel, not shown.
